# toad-msg

Low-level representation of CoAP messages.

The most notable item in `toad_msg` is `Message`;
a CoAP message very close to the actual byte layout.

### Allocation
CoAP messages are growable and dynamically sized:
- The message payload (_http equiv_: the request/response body)
- the number of options (_http equiv_: headers)
- the value of an option (_http equiv_: header value)

### Performance
This crate uses `criterion` to measure performance of the heaped & heapless implementations in this crate as well as `coap_lite::Packet`.

In general, `toad_msg::VecMessage` performs identically to coap_lite (+/- 5%), and both are **much** faster than `toad_msg::ArrayVecMessage`.
